France ended their Six Nations campaign with an emphatic 41-28 bonus-point victory over Wales at the Stade de France on Saturday, maintaining a slim chance of retaining the title six months before they host the World Cup.
Damian Penaud crossed twice, Jonathan Danty, Uini Atonio and Gael Fickou scored a try each and Thomas Ramos kicked the other points, meaning Les Bleus will win the championship if Ireland lose to England without a bonus point later on Saturday.
Wales made a perfect start, holding the ball as they worked through the phases and their domination was rewarded with North's early try between the posts. In a fierce battle, France built a lead through two Ramos penalties and as the visitors suffered physically, Danty added another try to extend the advantage to 13 points after Ramos's conversion.France's third try was a show of force as Atonio powered through to help Les Bleus steer further clear and Fickou claimed the fourth try after being set up by Ntamack.
Normal service resumed inside the final five minutes as Penaud touched down in the corner again and Ramos converted to give France a 20-point lead, cancelling out Ireland's point-difference advantage.
